Previously called the Before & After School Program
The Lisle Park District, in cooperation with Community Unit School District 202, offers affordable before and after school recreation programs. The EDGE Program serves Lisle Park District Residents Kindergarten through 5th grade, who attend District 202 schools and operates during the school year. The EDGE AM program takes place at Lisle Elementary School and the EDGE PM program takes place at the Lisle Recreation Center. Activities include organized crafts, sports, games, and homework time as well as unstructured time to socialize and play.
EDGE will follow Lisle Elementary School calendar. EDGE will not operate on days off, institute days or days when school is canceled for inclement weather. EDGE will offer half day programs.

WEEKLY SCHEDULE
We ask that families commit to the same schedule each week at the time of initial registration. We understand that there will be times you will need to adjust your child’s schedule but knowing ahead of time how many children will be joining us each day, helps us plan for staffing and activities in advance.
SCHEDULE CHANGES
We understand that sometimes schedules change. Please contact our front desk to make any changes. All changes must be done at least a week ahead of time with the deadline being the Wednesday of the previous week. All changes will be subject to a $10.00 change fee. Any changes to your child’s schedule after the deadline will not be accepted. To change your schedule, call or email Jill Jehs at jjehs@lisleparkdistrict.org or at 630-353-4345.
PAYMENTS
For those registered each week, we will automatically collect payment for the month on the first business day of each month. If you are registering your child for only one week every so often, we will collect payment from you at time of registration. Enrollment must be done by Wednesday of the previous week. We will not accept late registrations. We cannot transfer days or issue refunds for days missed.
LATE FEES
The EDGE programs are contingent on meeting minimum enrollment. There will be a $10 fee for late payments.
WITHDRAWING FROM THE PROGRAM
If you no longer need your child enrolled in the EDGE program, please contact Jill Jehs at jjehs@lisleparkdistrict.org to begin the withdrawal process. Future payments will be cancelled but no refunds will be issued. Withdrawal requests must be made before the next automatic payment is processed (first business day of the month).
ADA ACCOMMODATIONS
If your child requires inclusion assistance or other reasonable accommodations, please note that on your registration form. We advise 2-week advance notice in order to secure an inclusion aide for your child. You will receive confirmation from the park district when an aide has been secured.
